Will her latest mistake push Ronnie away?

17-23 OCTOBER

When Debbie suggests a romantic night in, Ronnie turns her down, explaining that Ed is taking him out for a belated birthday meal.

Later, Ronnie admits to Ed that although he still fancies Debbie, he’s worried about her dementia and the effect it could have on their sex life. Ed urges Ronnie to discuss it with her. But will Ronnie take Ed’s advice?

When Debbie suggests to Ronnie they head back to bed as she’s feeling frisky, she unwittingly calls him Darren, and Ronnie lets it go but feigns a headache.

When Debbie confides in Abi and Glenda, Abi is struggling to bite her tongue. Will Abi tell Debbie the truth?

At the hotel, Debbie gives Denise, a bride-to-be, a guided tour and confirms that her wedding is booked in for July. When Denise reveals that she requested 26th June, Debbie’s horrified to realise she’s messed up the dates. When Carl suggests that Ryan should handle the bookings from now on, Debbie agrees.

In the hotel bar, as Carl and Ronnie talk, Debbie approaches and gives Ronnie short shrift, unaware that Paula, the ex-con, is watching her.

Meanwhile, Denise tells Ryan she doesn’t want Debbie anywhere near her wedding day as she’s a liability.

Confronting her, Paula threatens Debbie, and as Ryan shows Denise around, they come across Debbie and Paula arguing. Demanding her deposit back, Denise storms out.

When Denise’s fiancé, Stan, arrives, Debbie explains that he’s missed her and offers him a glass of wine, before telling him about how her husband doesn’t fancy her anymore.
